Interview Prompt
We're tallying scores for a dice game from the list of rolls in the order they landed. Every roll adds its face value, and a back-to-back repeat of the same value earns an extra streak bonus; what is the round's total?
Summary
Consecutive matching dice rolls trigger a special scoring rule.
How This Interview Works
- Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
- Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
- Write and run your Python against test cases
- Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
